EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Zion Nuclear Station NRC Inspection Report 05000295/2002-006(DNMS)

This routine decommissioning inspection covered aspects of licensee facility management and control, decommissioning support activities, spent fuel safety, and radiological safety. During the inspection, the plant was being maintained in a safe storage of the spent fuel condition, with no major decommissioning work activities in progress. The annual spent fuel pool heat-up rate surveillance test was performed during this period.

Decommissioning Performance and Status Review at Permanently Shut Down Reactors

 The licensees staffing was adequate for the level of work being performed at the site.

The staffing level and training met Technical Specification requirements. The licensee provided Nuclear General Employee Training (NGET) and certified fuel handler training, as required. (Section 1.1)

 The new plant manager met the qualification requirements found in ANSI [American National Standards Institute] N18.1, Qualifications for ANSI 18.1-1971 Personnel (Management Personnel Only). (Section 1.2)

 The inspectors determined that the licensees assessment of the corrective action work orders appropriately identified issues and implemented corrective actions in a timely manner. (Section 1.3)

 The material integrity of structures, systems, and components necessary for the safe storage of spent fuel (SAFSTOR) and the conduct of safe decommissioning activities were appropriately monitored and maintained. The inspectors had no concerns with the observed housekeeping or fire protection conditions. (Section 1.4)

Decommissioning Support Activities

 Based on the physical inspections and/or reviews of calibration documentation for plant radiation monitors, the inspectors determined that radiation monitoring instrumentation was being adequately maintained. No concerns were identified. (Section 2.1)

 The spent fuel pool (SFP) heat-up rate decreased from 0.80EF per hour in 2001 to 0.72EF per hour in 2002, providing 31 more hours between normal operating temperature to the boiling temperature than existed in 2001. This increased the total time to achieve boiling in the SFP to approximately 169 hours0.00196 days <br />0.0469 hours <br />2.794312e-4 weeks <br />6.43045e-5 months <br />. (Section 2.2)

 The inspectors had no concerns with the detail and quality of the Zion Shift Manager Logs. (Section 2.3)

Spent Fuel Safety

 The inspectors toured the area surrounding the SFP and reviewed equipment important to the defueled condition. The inspectors did not identify any adverse conditions. The SFP water leakage was very low, and the SFP level alarm switch calibrations were adequate. (Section 3.1)

 The inspectors did not identify any paths for siphoning or draining of the SFP.

(Section 3.2)

Radiological Safety

 The licensee was maintaining dose levels ALARA [as-low-as-reasonably-achievable].

Total station staff exposure for 2002 was 130 millirem, which was well below the ALARA goal of 365 millirem. (Section 4.2)

 The licensee modified the lake discharge tank piping to prevent unmonitored releases of radioactive liquid to ensure public safety. The licensee also verified storage of solid radioactive waste and met the requirements specified in the Defueled Safety Analysis Report (DSAR). (Section 4.3)

Report Details1 Summary of Plant Activities During the period covered by this inspection, the plant remained in safe storage of the spent fuel (SAFSTOR) with no major decommissioning work activities in progress. The licensee performed the annual spent fuel pool (SFP) heat-up rate surveillance test during this period.

Major ongoing activities focused on the operation and maintenance of the equipment in support of the Spent Fuel Nuclear Island (SFNI).

1.0 Decommissioning Performance and Status Review at Permanently Shut Down Reactors 1.1 Organization and Facility Management (IP 36801)

a. Inspection Scope The inspectors evaluated the licensees staffing and training including Technical Specification requirements.

b. Observations and Findings The licensee tracks required training for station personnel on a site training matrix. The inspectors reviewed the site training matrix, including the licensees tracking and implementation of certified fuel handler and Nuclear General Employee Training (NGET). The licensee required quarterly NGET training, and biannual testing was given for the certified fuel handlers. The inspectors didnt identify any concerns with the training program.

There have been no changes in the level of staffing at the station. The inspectors reviewed control room-manning and determined that it met regulatory requirements as found in the Technical Specifications, Table 5.2.2-1, Minimum Shift Crew Composition.

The inspectors didnt identify any concerns regarding staffing levels.

c. Conclusions The licensees staffing was adequate for the level of work being performed at the site.

The staffing level and training met Technical Specification requirements. The licensee provided NGET training and certified fuel handler training, as required.

1.2 Plant Managers Duties a. Inspection Scope The inspectors interviewed the plant manager and reviewed his responsibilities and experience.

Note: A list of acronyms used in these Details is provided at the end of the report.

b. Observations and Findings A new individual officially replaced the existing plant manager on October 21, 2002.

The new plant manager has worked and/or held an operating license and a senior operating license at two of the licensees operating nuclear stations. The new plant manager has over 20 years of experience.

The inspectors reviewed Procedure ZAP-500-09, Certification of Participants to ANSI- [American National Standards Institute] Recognized Requirements for Plant Manager. One of the requirements is that the plant manager shall have ten years of responsible power plant experience and specifically, three years of nuclear power plant experience. The plant manager met the criteria specified in Procedure ZAP-500-09, as well as the criteria specified in ANSI N18.1, Qualifications for ANSI N18.1-1971 Personnel (Management Personnel Only).

c. Conclusions The new plant manager met the qualification requirements found in ANSI N18.1, Qualifications for ANSI 18.1-1971 Personnel (Management Personnel Only).

1.3 Self-Assessment, Auditing, and Corrective Actions (40801)

a. Inspection Scope The inspectors reviewed corrective action work orders issued from July 7 through August 8, 2002, to evaluate the corrective action and root cause process.

b. Observation and Findings After reviewing corrective action work orders issued from July 7 through August 8, 2002, the inspectors discussed them with the licensees staff. The inspectors focused on those conditions categorized as adverse to quality (CAQ) and the conditions not adverse to quality (CNAQ).

Work Order No. 00477492, Discovery of Radioactivity on the Secondary Side of the SFNI, dated September 19, 2002, was classified as a CNAQ. The inspector discussed the basis for this classification with the radiation protection manager. Based on the review and discussion, the inspectors concluded that the work order was properly classified and that appropriate management reviews were completed.

The inspectors had no concerns with the other work orders reviewed during this inspection period. These work orders are listed in Appendix A, Documents Reviewed.

c. Conclusions The inspectors determined that the licensees assessment of the corrective action work orders appropriately identified issues and implemented corrective actions in a timely manner.

1.4 Plant Tours to Evaluate Material Conditions and Housekeeping (IP 71801)

a. Inspection Scope The inspectors toured areas of the plant including the control room, the Spent Fuel Nuclear Island (SFNI), and the auxiliary building to evaluate the material condition of structures, systems, and components (SSCs) necessary for the safe storage of spent fuel (SAFSTOR). The inspectors also evaluated the licensees implementation of housekeeping and fire protection for these areas.

b Observations and Findings The inspectors walked down accessible areas that contained SSCs for SAFSTOR. The material condition was acceptable. The inspectors did not identify any SSC conditions that impacted SAFSTOR. Housekeeping was acceptable. No fire hazards were identified, and no conditions were identified that were adverse to plant equipment or personnel safety. The status of spent fuel pool SSCs were being monitored in the control room, and the licensee staff were trending significant parameters.

c. Conclusions The material integrity of structures, systems, and components necessary for SAFSTOR and the conduct of safe decommissioning activities were appropriately monitored and maintained. The inspectors had no concerns with the observed housekeeping or fire protection conditions.

2.0 Decommissioning Support Activities 2.1 Maintenance and Surveillance at Permanently Shutdown Reactors (IP 62801)

a. Inspection Scope The inspectors conducted a physical inspection and reviewed maintenance and calibration documentation for the following plant radiation monitors: Spent Fuel Pool Area Radiation Monitor, Auxiliary Building Particulate and Noble Gas Radiation Monitor, and Unit 2 Vent Stack SPING [Station Particulate Iodine and Noble Gas].

The inspector reviewed the Zion Station schedule to assess whether the licensee adequately and effectively scheduled test and maintenance activities to ensure adherence to acceptable safety practices.

b. Observations and Findings Although there were no calibrations in progress during the inspectors visit to the station, the inspectors reviewed the calibration documentation associated with Station Radiation Monitors 0RT-PR30A (particulate monitor) and 0RT30B (noble gas monitor). Both instruments were associated with the Auxiliary Building Exhaust Ventilation Monitor and were correctly calibrated within the required calibration surveillance frequency.

During the physical inspection of radiation monitors, the inspectors were accompanied by licensee personnel. The inspectors had no concerns during the physical inspection of the monitors.

The inspectors reviewed the following documentation in lieu of actual observation of maintenance or surveillance tasks due to schedule limitations. The inspectors did not identify any concerns.

  • Work Order No. 00334449, Replacement of Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory (EPROM - a computer chip) and Sensor; and
  • Work Order No. 00386007, Install Jumper, Remove, and Replace Smoke Detector.

The inspectors also physically inspected Radiation Monitors 2R1A-PR49 (Unit 2 Vent Stack SPING) and the ORI-AR03 (Spent Fuel Island Area Radiation Monitor). The documentation reviewed by the inspectors was complete and comprehensive.

Documentation in the Zion Station Schedule for Work Activities indicated that all aspects of station maintenance were adequately addressed in a timely manner. The inspector interviewed the station maintenance manager to inquire about the performance of the scheduled work within the specified schedule times. Some slippage of scheduled activities occurred due to unexpected resource alterations. However, the maintenance manger indicated that there were appropriate margins in the schedule to ensure that activities were accomplished on time and in accordance with procedures.

c. Conclusions Based on the physical inspections and/or reviews of calibration documentation for plant radiation monitors, the inspectors determined that radiation monitoring instrumentation was being adequately maintained. No concerns were identified.

2.2 Spent Fuel Pool Annual Heat-Up Rate Test a. Inspection Scope The inspectors reviewed Operations Special Procedure OSP-01-002, Revision 0, Spent Fuel Pool Heat-up Rate Procedure, with the licensees staff.

b. Observation and Findings The purpose of the heat-up rate test was to document the spent fuel pool (SFP) heat-up while the spent fuel nuclear island (SFNI) Cooling Tower Pumps were turned off.

The SFP heat-up test is performed annually, during the hottest months of the year. The result of 2001 SFP heat-up test was a heat-up rate of 0.80EF per hour. Results of the July 30 -31, 2002 test were as follows:

The SFP heat-up test was initiated at 12:00 p.m. on July 30, 2002, after spent fuel pool cooling was stopped. The test was terminated at approximately 12:00 a.m. on July 31, 2002, with fuel building ventilation restored at 8:00 a.m. on July 31, due to high humidity conditions in the fuel building. Only data obtained with the fuel building ventilation turned off was used to determine the SFP heat-up rate. There was a 14.4EF SFP

temperature increase over the 20-hour test duration with fuel building ventilation turned off. The resultant SFP heat-up rate was 0.72EF per hour, as expected.

The SFP cooling system maintains the SFP temperature between 90EF and 95EF.

Assuming an initial SFP temperature of 90EF, it would take approximately 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> for the pool to heat up to the high temperature alarm at 125EF, and it would take approximately 169 hours0.00196 days <br />0.0469 hours <br />2.794312e-4 weeks <br />6.43045e-5 months <br /> for the pool to heat up to the boiling temperature of 212EF.

The SFP heat-up rate decreased from 0.80EF per hour in 2001 to 0.72EF per hour in 2002. The time to boil from the normal operating temperature increased by approximately 31 hours3.587963e-4 days <br />0.00861 hours <br />5.125661e-5 weeks <br />1.17955e-5 months <br />; therefore, the licensees staff has more time to restore SFP cooling if it is lost.

c. Conclusions The SFP heat-up rate decreased from 0.80EF per hour in 2001 to 0.72EF per hour in 2002, providing 31 more hours between normal operating temperature to the boiling temperature than existed in 2001. This increased the total time before boiling in the SFP to approximately 169 hours0.00196 days <br />0.0469 hours <br />2.794312e-4 weeks <br />6.43045e-5 months <br />.

2.3 Operator Logs a. Inspection Scope The inspectors reviewed the Zion Shift Manager Logs for quality and detail relative to the operational status of equipment, surveillances, and maintenance activities.

b. Observations and Findings The inspectors reviewed the Zion Shift Manager Logs from 2002, dated: July 1, July 5, July 6, August 15, August 13, August 22, September 7, September 19, September 20, October 4, October 5, October 7, December 12, and December 16, 2002, and from 2003, dated January 6.

The inspectors had no concerns with the detail or quality of these logs. Equipment realignments for operational activities and maintenance were adequately documented in the daily logs.

c. Conclusions The inspectors had no concerns with the detail and quality of the Zion Shift Manager Logs.

3.0 Spent Fuel Safety (60801)

3.1 Cooling the Spent Fuel Pool a. Inspection Scope The inspectors verified the safe wet storage of spent fuel in the fuel building. Factors considered in the evaluation included: SFP instrumentation, alarms and leakage

detection; cleanliness control; chemistry of the SFP; criticality controls; SFP operation; and power supplies. The inspectors discussed monitoring SFP parameters with operations personnel which included an operator, the shift supervisor, and the operations manager.

b. Observations and Findings The inspectors reviewed the Defueled Technical Specifications (DTS), Defueled Safety Analysis Report (DSAR), and various procedures relevant to the operation of the SFP.

During a tour of the SFP area, the inspectors evaluated instrumentation readings, local electrical breaker positions, and local valve line-ups. The inspectors did not identify any problems or concerns.

On January 7, 2003, the SFP cooling system controlled the temperature of the SFP at 89EF; the SFP heat up rate was 0.72EF per hour; and the time it took to achieve the water boiling point in the SFP (with no SFP cooling) was 171 hours0.00198 days <br />0.0475 hours <br />2.827381e-4 weeks <br />6.50655e-5 months <br />. The SFP level was at an elevation of 614 feet and 7 inches. These parameters were within procedural limits. The SFP boron concentration was 2016 parts per million (ppm) versus the Technical Specification limit of greater than 500 ppm.

The inspectors had a discussion with an operator who was performing his rounds in the fuel building. The inspectors learned that operators tour the fuel building twice each day, and the shift manager normally tours the fuel building once a day.

Licensee personnel completed the SFP leakage surveillance on October 21, 2002, and documented the surveillance in Work Order No. 00438405. The Work Order referenced Procedure TSS 15.6.104, Determination of Spent Fuel Pit Liner and Transfer Canal Liner Leakage, Revision 2, to observe, estimate, and evaluate any leakage. The licensee staff monitored the SFP liner and transfer canal leakage and trended data on a six-month frequency. The results showed that the total leakage was 0.005 gpm, which was below the allowable 1 gpm leakage in the acceptance criteria. Per the evaluation, both the SFP and transfer canal leakages remained approximately the same as determined during a surveillance test performed on April 25, 2002. Based on the surveillance results, the engineer documented the recommendation that monitoring and trending of SFP leakage should continue on the same six-month frequency.

The SFP high/low level switch was last calibrated between January 16, 2001, and March 13, 2001. The calibration was done on a 4-year frequency and was tracked as a pre-defined Preventative Maintenance Requirement (PMRQ), No. 0012671101. The inspectors learned from a discussion with an instrument maintenance supervisor that the switch had a float mechanism and was calibrated using actual pool level. The high level resulted from the pool level being increased until the switch actuated the high level alarm. As the pool level decreased due to evaporation, the low level alarm was actuated. This occurred over a period of approximately two months. The 2001 surveillance results indicated that the high value level was slightly out of tolerance, and the low level value was within tolerance. Licensee personnel adjusted the high level alarm, retested it, and found it to be back in tolerance.

c. Conclusions The inspectors toured the area surrounding the SFP and reviewed equipment important to the defueled condition. The inspectors did not identify any adverse conditions. Spent fuel pool water leakage was very low, and the SFP level alarm switch calibrations were adequate.

3.2 Siphon and Drain Protection for the Spent Fuel Pool a. Inspection Scope The inspectors reviewed the most current SFP anti-siphon hole blockage documentation and discussed skimmer operations with the operations manager while they walked down the area surrounding the SFP.

b. Observations and Findings During a walkdown of the areas surrounding the SFP, the inspectors did not identify any deficiencies that could result in siphoning the SFP or the transfer canal, nor did inspectors identify any items that could fall into the pool during a seismic event. The SFP water was very clear, with no visible debris on the surface. The equipment providing makeup from Zion city water lines to the SFP was maintained in acceptable material condition. Spare filters were available nearby to replace used filters. Valves were clearly marked in the event that a bypass around the filters was required to makeup water to the pool.

During a discussion with the operations manager, the inspectors determined that the system design features and physical limitations would preclude siphoning the SFP during skimmer operations.

The inspectors found that Zion Administrative Procedure, ZAP 110-02, Revision 13, Procedure Process Control, contained requirements for processing a new procedure or for making changes to an existing procedure. There were requirements within this procedure (Step 1.7.1) for an anti-siphon review of evolutions associated with or around the SFP. Station Operating Instruction SOI-75P, Revision 10, Spent Fuel Transfer Canal Operations, contained guidance to use when performing evolutions within the transfer canal that could cause siphoning to occur. Also, Procedure AOP-6.2, Revision 2, Spent Fuel Pit/Transfer Canal Uncontrolled Loss of Level, contained steps to be taken if water was being lost from the SFP, including checking for hoses in the SFP which could cause siphoning. The procedures were adequate in addressing the prevention of siphoning of the pool.

The licensee staff inspected the SFP anti-siphon hole for blockage on October 21, 2002, and they documented the inspection using Work Order Task No. 99282220 01. The verification was done on an 18-month frequency and was tracked by the work control process. No blockage was identified.

c. Conclusions The inspectors did not identify any paths for siphoning or draining of the SFP.

4.0 Radiological Safety

4.1 General The inspectors conducted reviews of ongoing activities in order to assess the overall as-low-as-reasonably-achievable (ALARA) practices.

4.2 Occupational Radiation Exposure (83750)

a. Inspection Scope The inspectors reviewed and evaluated external and internal dose controls and practices used to maintain exposures ALARA.

b. Observations and Findings The licensees total station exposure for calendar year 2002 was 130 millirem. These exposures were below the ALARA goal of 365 millirem.

The inspectors reviewed nine Zion Station Exposure Record documents covering daily exposures during this inspection period, and they did not identify any concerns.

c. Conclusions The licensee was maintaining dose levels ALARA. Total station staff exposure for 2002 was 130 millirem, which was well below the ALARA goal of 365 millirem.

4.3. Radioactive Waste Treatment, and Effluent and Environmental Monitoring (IP 84750)

a. Inspection Scope Inspectors reviewed the applicable portion of Engineering Change 336587 which addressed the cutting and capping of the lake discharge tank cross-connect piping.

Inspectors interviewed the Zion Radiation Protection Manager to assure that there was no potential for an unmonitored release. The inspectors also reviewed the licensees storage requirements for storing solid radiological waste.

b. Observations and Findings The inspectors reviewed the licensees engineering change to cut and cap the cross-connect piping from the lake discharge tanks and concluded that there was no potential for an unmonitored release. The licensee removed the section of pipe that contained several small leaks thereby lessening the potential for an unmonitored release of radioactive liquid. The inspectors interviewed the Radiation Protection Manager and discussed the licensees focus and attention in this area, including plans for future inspection activities. The inspectors concluded that the licensee was performing the engineering change to avoid unmonitored radioactive liquid release. The inspectors verified that solid radiological waste was being stored according to the regulatory requirements specified in the Defueled Safety Analysis Report (DSAR).

c. Conclusions

The licensee modified the lake discharge tank piping to prevent unmonitored releases of radioactive liquid to ensure public safety. The licensee also verified storage of solid radioactive waste and met the requirements specified in the Defueled Safety Analysis Report (DSAR).

5.0 Exit Meeting Summary The inspectors presented the inspection results to members of licensee management during an exit meeting on January 7, 2003. The licensee acknowledged the findings presented and did not identify any of the documents or processes reviewed by the inspectors as proprietary.
